MarcarmarGreat real life examplesLove to hear about real life examples of small businesses and their challenges

shersartworkCoolIt would be nice if you talked about Etsy shops that are not digital or POD
-
Nim522002Awesome!I came across your podcast and i must say you are very real and thats sometimes you want to hear. Will be listing to it consistently :)
-
mvelasco07A must-listen!Cannot thank Lauren enough for providing the Crickets to Cha-Chings community with such an incredibly valuable resource. Each episode is packed with insightful content, practical advice, and tangible tips. I truly learn something every time I listen. Keep up the great work, Lauren!
-
podcastbinger321!Binging for Good ReasonI’ve been binging on Lauren’s podcast for a few weeks now which lead me to enroll in her Traffic Accelerator. Every single time I have a question in my head about “how to fill-in-the-blank”, like magic, she answers my questions in her podcasts. I can’t wait to see what I learn in the Accelerator program. Thanks, Lauren. I appreciate your straight talk and solid suggestions. My store is only a few weeks old but I now have direction and the guidance I needed!

sexybabybabyMostly promoting her Programs, not enough infoI'm an Etsy seller of 10 plus years, and sucessful, but am always looking to improve my shop. I came across this podcast as it was suggested as a "you may also like" podcast while I was listening to podcasts put out by Etsy. While I do agree with alot of what she is saying as a philosophy, there really wasnt much content there. I listed to 2 episodes fully and they both talked about an overall mindset type of thing (yes, helpful), but didnt have ANY specifics at all on how to apply those midsets unless you bought her courses. This is really a promotional podcast in my opinion. Maybe helpful for totally new sellers, but I personally find a lot more specific info on youtube, and much of it is free.
-
klpattiMy go-to for Etsy info!This is one of the best places to get honest, sound advice about running an Etsy shop. I had to weed through a lot of podcasts, books & websites before finding Crickets to Cha-Chings which provides a wise and realistic approach to running a business with solid strategies and proven results. Lauren is down to earth and fun to listen to - she’s also someone that I can identify with as a mom, a wife and a (beginner!) entrepreneur.
-
Cherub09Game Changer!Every episode is packed with support and encouragement for your Etsy business. Whether you’re just getting started or an Etsy veteran, you’ll absolutely find useful insights and inspiration!

The Satin BeeShe helps me stay sane!I appreciate Lauren’s outlook on selling on Etsy. I found her during the Great Etsy Strike. I was happy to find a successful seller that has built her business from scratch having a similar outlook on Etsy as a business as I do. Her encouraging podcast about the summer slump Is validating as well. A necessary reminder that my business isn’t failing, it’s just cycling through the year. I look forward to more information about selling on Etsy, and some sanity as well. Thank you!
-
Erika @ Simpson LeatherStrategic and Common senseI have listened to Lauren’s podcast for over a year now and always learn something new. I appreciate her common sense approach to business which she has managed to use for success. Thanks for the great business tips and Small Shop encouragement!
-
CjkjkjkjkjkjkjGreat podcastI really enjoy the no nonsense approach to selling on Etsy this podcast employes. There are actionable goodies in each episode and the tips work for most online selling, not just Etsy. Thanks!
-
AmberwavespaperieFave Etsy Podcast By FAR!I love Lauren’s practical and honest approach to business coaching. She provides so much useful information! I love hearing about her own experiences as well as other shop owners’ experiences. From advice and round-ups to deep dives and interviews, Lauren’s podcast delivers awesome content every time!
-
naturepaintstudioA True LeaderI have been listening to this podcast for over a year. Lauren is a very business savvy woman, full of inspiration and cold facts for anyone with a handmade business. Great teaching style!
-
KLSchroedLauren keeps it realThis podcast stands apart from the others because Lauren keeps it real. She doesn’t sugarcoat things and she doesn’t over-hype. If you have an Etsy shop, you can trust Lauren for solid advice.
-
Fighter hugSo helpfulHello, my shop is @NatalieMineHandmade and your podcast has helped me with so many helpful tips with Etsy. I love listening to you while I’m working
-
Yoshi112@Podcast is full of useful gems!I came across Lauren’s podcast a while ago after searching to find a good Etsy pod, and hers is hands down the best. She has great insight, and I have at least one great take away (if not more) after each ep! Definitely worth a listen if you are working on growing your Etsy shop!
-
BRID11!!AH-MAZING PodcastLauren does a great job at keeping the listener’s attention and provides amazing information. Her podcast is very smooth and calming also, I am able to listen while working on other things and still process what is being said. Thank you Lauren for taking time to educate us, she is also very FRIENDLY! Provides great advice!
-
mondayfunday88Monday Funday!I am a mom, wife and juggling their schedules, working a FT job as well as hustling hard to grow my Etsy shop. Lauren totally gets it and remembers those first years of her evolving shop. Lauren has made me love my Monday morning commute since she releases a brand new podcast. I always learn something or at least she gets my creative juices flowing!! Thank you!!!
-
SeaSheltSeriously the BestThere’s a lot of podcast that are designed to help with your Etsy shop but Lauren’s is really the best of the best. She provides so much good information and things you can do that actually make a difference. She is so knowledgeable and her advice and experience has really helped me to grow my shop immensely. Do your ears and shop a favor and subscribe to Lauren. Seriously, she’s the best there is!
-
BugAZ85Put Me In the Etsy Game, Coach!Lauren’s adorably named show is an awesome resource for anyone who is ready to succeed in the online handmade sales game! I started an Etsy shop a few months ago, and found this podcast and have since binge listened to EVERY episode and I can tell you this lady is giving out pure gems of information! Her straightforward and to the point delivery resonates with me, I feel like I have a one on one Etsy business coach who hypes me up while setting realistic expectations and provides actionable information that is accurate and relevant (no old news here folks). I especially appreciate her realistic approach to the platform and how she doesn’t try to always make everything too good to be true. The other thing that really speaks to her expertise is she is a seller, and runs a successful shop (it’s crazy how many people dishing out advice are neither)! I’ve implemented many of her strategies and action items in my shop and my cha-chings tell me that she knows what she is talking about :) Thank you Lauren for spending time creating and sharing your podcasts with us, this Etsy seller from Arizona sure appreciates you!
-
MI-NicoleHuge HelpOpened my digital downloads shop in March and it’s grown each month thanks in large part to Lauren and the information she’s provided on her podcast. Lots of practical help. Would love more content for digital creators.

ugffjhbkjbkhGame changer!Finding Lauren is the absolute best thing that happened to my business! She speaks for a place of experience with her many years on Etsy but continues to stay up to date on all the new things changing. I recommend her podcast to all my other small business friends.
-
gifitesGreat adviceLauren does such a great job giving and sharing good practical information. I have learned and grown so much as an Etsy seller listening to her podcasts.
-
PlaceboMetalworksGreat listen and helpful adviceI started listening to different Etsy related podcasts on how to grow my business, and really gravitated to Lauren’s. Her teaching style is very straight forward, easy to understand and follow. She doesn’t sugar coat or over hype what needs to be done and I appreciate that.
-
somethingsallycoPodcast Gold for Etsy shop owners!If you have a shop on Etsy or are thinking of starting one, this is such a valuable podcast! Lauren has gained so much “Etsy wisdom” over the years from her own experience and research and shares so much gold in the form of tips, how-tos, things to think about, pep talks, resources, and more. Her podcast has helped me tremendously.
-
wowfactordesignSales Slumps Eye OpenerLauren's Podcase on the subject of "summer slump in sales", is a straight forward, positive approach on how to handle these slow periods both mentally and emotionally. First and foremost, explaining how your shop is not the only shop experiencing the "slow down" and offers some great ideas on what to do with your time during these periods to improve your product and/or your shop. You must listen, it'll help your frame of mind.
-
B n Me Creative BoutiqueEtsy Coach You Can TrustThere are a lot of Etsy coaches out there but Lauren’s advice is consistent, on target, and delivered without a sales-y approach. The crickets to cha-chings podcast is great listening.
-
Wasterlain PaintsLove Lauren’s Direct Advice!I have listened to every episode of Lauren’s and signed up for her Sale your Sales course after feeling like she “spoke my language” when it comes to business strategy and no nonsense approach. This podcast gives such valuable information and wisdom and stands apart from other podcasts that focus on catchy headlines but dont say much in their content. I highly recommend listening to Lauren if you want to grow on Etsy.
-
Thank You Amy!Best Etsy and Small Biz PodcastLauren is one of the best teachers out there. A lot of online learning is taught by people who don’t have experience, but Lauren does. If you’re looking for Etsy tips or even thinking about starting an Etsy or online business, look no further and listen to this podcast!
-
LauraBergsmaStudioRealistic and Down to EarthI purchased Lauren’s “Scale your Sales” class at the start of this year and just began listening to her podcast. What I love about Lauren is her realistic and down to earth business tips. While a lot of other people online will tell you to sign up for their class to “unlock their magic key to Etsy success”, Lauren gives you straight forward advice and lets you know you will have to work hard in order to be successful. I appreciate the honesty, the wisdom and the encouragement that Lauren brings to her teaching materials and podcast!
-
DenaHopkins7Lauren is fantastic!!I love listening to Lauren’s podcasts. She has the knowledge and experience to guide us and explains it in such a way that is encouraging.

Lauren is so down to earth and just very real. It’s a must listen to each week. You won’t regret it!

yarnandneedleJust starting outI’ve had an Etsy shop for about 3 years and have struggled all 3 years. I just found Lauren and love her pod casts and signed up for the scale your sales. It’s very motivating to listen to all her pod casts and videos. Hopefully I can turn my small business into a profitable one!
-
bwembroideryVery helpful and relevant!Lauren still sells on Etsy and keeps you posted on all updates and changes. Her course is fluid and is updated along the way. The podcast alone provides lots of free information that can help you scale up. Highly recommend. Very to the point and professional.
-
TaciGood simple informationStumbled upon this show and found the info really useful. My Etsy was kind of my “back up” store as I tried to build my own but after listening I realized that developing them together equally was a better option. I have made some changes based on the show, still waiting for results but I am guessing they are in there way.
-
Hc1189Best Small Business PodcastWhen I found Lauren’s podcast, it instantly became my favorite. There’s no fluff and she is truthfully blunt about what she believes and gives supporting reasons why. I think she is so practical and I like listening to them. She isn’t salesy and I purchased her program shortly after beginning to listen. Her insider community is very knowledgeable. Can’t say enough good things about her and her podcast!
